Dot Painting
by

Northern Territory Australia

Another study of hands at work.
Dot painting is a way the indiginous people tell their stories and mythology.
Acrylic on canvas with the artist sitting on the ground, authentic paintings can include child and dog footprints as well as debris blown in by the wind.

Another interesting craftsperson at work; I'd never heard of this before. It would be funny if the person doing the painting was named "Dot", then you could call it "Dot dot painting" 8^)
